Chapter 192: Soil and Water Adaptation
Looking at Ah Shi's appearance, Cao Wu knew that he told her to rest, but she definitely didn't have a good rest.
In this era, doctors and witches are the same kind and are not taken seriously, but Ah Shi has the benevolence of a doctor beyond the times, and when he first arrived in Guangxin, he couldn't stay idle and went to check the situation of the soldiers who protected the Taishou Mansion.
Because Cao Wu wanted to lure the snake out of the cave, these soldiers were carefully selected, and they were not injured, but Ah Shi learned about the situation in the camp from them.
Ah Shi introduced: "In the southern miasma, the soldiers are not accustomed to the water and soil, and when they arrive here, they get sick. ”
When she said this, Cao Wu was relieved, it turned out that it was just because of the unaccustomed water and soil, not an infectious disease like in Chibi.
In this land, the Qinling Mountains and the Huai River separate the north and south, and the five mountains divide the south again, the so-called smoke miasma land of the ancients refers to the special humid and hot climate of Lingnan.
Not to mention this era, even Cao Wu's previous life, from the north to the south suddenly, there will be some discomfort, it is normal to catch a cold or get sick or have a fever.
In fact, Cao Wuben cared about this matter, so he transferred soldiers from the people stationed in Jingnan, which not only reduced the transportation time, but also because these soldiers had a buffer in Jingnan for a period of time, and then went to Lingnan, it would always be lighter to adapt to the water and soil.
However, this caused the soldiers to be not seriously ill, and the generals of the various departments had not reported the matter, and the careful Ah Shi found out first.
"How sick is it that it can be cured?"
Cao Wu asked.
"There are not many people who fall ill, but there are many minor illnesses, and they need to take decoction, and they can probably be cured in ten days."
"Okay, you're an expert, it's up to you."
Cao Wu breathed a sigh of relief again, looking at the five thousand years, Zhang Zhongjing was one of the best doctors to deal with epidemics, and under Cao Wu's arrangement, Cao Ashi studied medicine with Zhang Zhongjing, and he did his best, although it was still a little hot, but it was enough to deal with this small disease.
As for the 10th, it was just right for the departments to rest and recuperate, and also let Zhang He get familiar with the Cangwu soldiers.
These ten days are a rare buffer, and he is also ready to let Jiang Wan work harder to find out the situation in the four counties controlled by Shi Xie.
With Ah Shi, he relieved his worries, so he could continue the layout below.
Jiangdong's entry disrupted the established strategy he discussed with Zhuge Liang and Lu Xun when he was in Beifu, and he could only improvise and let Zhuge Liang go south to Jiuzhen County to find an opportunity, and then find a way to disrupt Jiangdong's plan while resting.
……
With a "bang", a small boat docked, Zhuge Liang wiped the sweat on his forehead, and stepped on the shore with his robe.
He looked back at the woman behind him, and said helplessly: "It's really hot here, and the ancient books record it is true." ”
Ah San, who was dressed in white, nodded, but did not speak, and there was sweat on her forehead, but she did not wipe it.
The two walked on the shore for a while, Zhuge Liang wanted to find a topic several times, but seeing that Ah San didn't want to take it, he gave up, thinking that the maids in Beifu had different temperaments, and if Ah Liu was here, he would have talked to him about many topics.
But fortunately, Zhuge Liang is not a noisy person, Ah San ignored him, and he thought about how to open up the situation in Jiuzhen County.
He didn't notice that within a few steps of going ashore, the sweat on Ah San's forehead had disappeared, and her body had adapted to the hot environment, no longer like it was just now.
The two of them walked for a while, and suddenly several figures appeared, rushing towards them.
Zhuge Liang was shocked, but when he saw those figures clearly, he couldn't cry or laugh.
It turned out that although those people were all men, they were very short, much worse than Zhuge Liang's eight-foot figure.
They were all clothed only in animal skins, covering their underneath, with their upper bodies uncovered and without clothing.
They screamed, armed with wooden weapons, and rushed at the two of them.
Zhuge Liang's eyes flickered, Ah San was already in front of him, and one of the two long swords behind her was taken down by her and held in her hand for guard.
Perhaps sensing that these savages were not too threatening, Ah San's sword was only less than thirty percent unsheathed, glowing with cold light, but he didn't make a move.
"Don't worry, I'll come."
Zhuge Liang calmed down, stepped forward, and said aloud to the savages: "A certain is the new county commander here, who are you, and which Miao descendant are you?" ”
When the savages heard him speak, they all slowed down, but they didn't seem to understand what Zhuge Liang was saying at all, they looked at each other and screamed again.
Zhuge Liang frowned: "People who are outsiders don't understand the language, this is troublesome." ”
As he spoke, a savage rushed forward, said a few words he didn't understand, and threw a wooden spear at Zhuge Liang.
With a "brush", before everyone could react, Ah San's sword was unsheathed.
The sword is out, the gun is broken.
The wooden spear that had broken in two had not yet landed, and the tip of Ah San's sword had reached the throat of the savage.
With just this move, all the savages who rushed up stopped talking, they subconsciously grabbed the weapons in their hands and looked at Zhuge Liang and the others.
Zhuge Liang didn't expect Ah San to be so decisive, but fortunately, the effect seemed to be very good, and these savages were frightened.
Of course, he will not let go of this opportunity, he came here to find an opportunity through his three-inch incorruptible tongue.
When he first came, he thought that he was in danger, but now it seems that Cao Wu sent the woman in front of him, which is already the best protection for him, Cao Wu does not want him to be in danger, especially this unnecessary risk, Cao Wu also persuaded several times at that time, Zhuge Liang insisted on clearing the obstacles for Cao Wu, so he came here.
Zhuge Liang took a step forward and said: "I am the new county commander here, do you have anyone here who can say sinicization?" ”
The savage looked at each other again, and the savage who was pointed at the point of the sword trembled a little, and he seemed to realize that the woman would stab himself to death if he moved the slightest.
He didn't seem to give up hope, he didn't want to sit still, and there was a slight movement of his hand facing backwards.
A few savages behind saw it, and immediately rushed up shouting, their target was still Zhuge Liang, and it seemed that they wanted to exchange Zhuge Liang for their companions who were pointed at by the tip of the sword by holding Zhuge Liang hostage.
As a result, none of them could rush to Zhuge Liang's approach.
Ah San still has one hand that has not moved, and there is still a sword that is not unsheathed.
When this sword also released a cold glow, all the weapons of those who were still charging were broken.
Zhuge Liang licked his lips, and he himself was taken aback.
After joining Cao Wu's camp, he also began to see all kinds of fierce generals, but none of them had the accuracy of Cao Asan, maybe Cao Asan and Xu Chu were far from each other in terms of strength, but in the real life and death fight, Cao Asan may not lose.
Thinking of this, Zhuge Liang sighed.
He was a man of letters, and he wanted to communicate with these savages through the way of literati, but unfortunately, the savages did not seem to think so.
There was no way, Zhuge Liang took another step forward.
There was a wild man here who was startled by the cutting off of his weapon and fell to the ground.
Zhuge Liang stepped on the wild man's head and said in a deep voice: "This is the county order here, you find someone who can speak Chinese!" ”
